One of the simplest methods used by SHUDRAS (slaves and servants or menial and manual workers) involved working tools to ease their stresses. Dhot-ta used a short stick (farm tool) to: 1. stretch out tight or knotted muscles 2. press at body parts (accupressure) 3. gather internal energy through breath to calm the body and mind before and during self treatment.
